Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. I say not worth it for a 2G
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more. Again, likely not worth it for a 2G

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Itunes messed up my restore and now doesn't see my ipod. What should I do?
I performed a restore on my Ipod Touch (bought new a couple of years back) and itunes tells me there was an error and the restore could not be completed. Nice that it still manage to delete all my information, contacts and goodness knows what else (I chose to backup my files using the itunes function), btw.
Anyways, now my ipod just has the "connect to itunes" picture. My PC doesn't recognise my ipod, apart from Apple Mobile Device under USB controllers in the Device Manager, and itunes doesn't see or try to do anything with my pod so that I can use it.
I've tried this solution http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 but that didn't help and I reinstalled itunes and Apple Mobile Device Support, but to no avail.
What should I do? I'm using Windows 7 HP x64.Put it in DFU mode.
It's a common thing among jailbreakers. No one else really needs it, but it should allow your iPod to take the official firmware of your choice.
Here is a copy from a jailbreak help guide I will not link.
Please note that this will not jailbreak your device, so back off, moderators.
Method (1)
* Attach the phone to the pc
* Turn the phone off
* Hold power and home together for *exactly* 10 seconds
* Release power but keep holding home until the pc beeps as a USB device is recognized.
* At no point will the display come on. Now your restore should work. -
I have problem when I updated iOS7 yesterday. At first, there was a message popped out in my Iphone 4 said "iOS7 available for u to update, then i clicked "update", then it said "wait while it verifying", after that my phone tuned blank and what i saw was only the "logo of apple". Until now i see only that Apple logo, i can't either switch my phone on or off.
My iTunes in Mac is just updated to version 11.1
I want to restore my phone by connecting my Iphone4 to iTunes in Mac but it doesn't show phone device.
I don't know why it doesnt connect to pc(Mac pro).
Any solution?You need to restart the phone in DFU mode and update the software.
To restart the phone in DFU mode press the power and home button simultaneously for like 10 seconds once the phone is switched off release the power button keep holding the home button while you connect to the computer which has Itunes running and then you can restore or update the software, you can download the update and connect after the software has been downloaded if your phone disconnects, And enjoy you new IOS7. -
HT1414 I can't restore my iPod after proper update!What should I do?
I can't restore my iPod after proper update!It suddenly froze while updating. Now it is in restore mode and every time I try to restore it, it failes!Also bear in mind that I have no backups of earlier versions of my iPod in my pc, since I formated it a few days ago.Thanks for your time!
Update Server
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem -

Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything... and you must continue with the Recovery...
See Here > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
You may need to try this More than Once... Be sure to Follow ALL the Steps...
Take your time... Pay particular attention to Steps 3 and 4.
After you have Recovered your Device...
Re-Sync your Content or Restore from the most recent Backup...
Restore from Backup > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766
Note:
Make sure you have the Current Version of iTunes Installed on your computer

My iPod Touch (4G, 8Gb) is only partially functioning, requiring multiple taps on icons to do anything, and apps are crashing often. There is a thin white border that appears around icons when tapped once, then I must tap twice to activate. (that's 3 taps for what used to take 1) I successfully completed all the Apple troubleshooting page steps, including reset and restore, but there was no change to its condition. What can I do now?
Now that I think aboput it further, You may have an Accessibilty feature turned on.
- Try triple clicking the Home button to see if that will allow access to the iPod so you can go to Settings>General>Restrictions to turn off all the Accessibilty features.
- If not then connect the iPod to your computer and turn off the features. See:

okay, so lately my iPhone 3GS has been telling me i have no service what so ever for the past two days. But today when i was on the bus going home from school, i had perfect service and everything until i got close to my house (to clarify, i live somewhat far out from the center of town, and my school is right in the middle of town.. didnt know if that would affect anything). So then i asked my Dad about it and he reccomended restoring and updating my phone to see if it helped because im a couple updates behind. So i plugged it in, backed it up, and began to restore and update it. All was well until it got to the "verifying the restore with apple" stage. I was watching the rose bowl and not paying attention while it was on, but remembered that it started that stage at the beginning of the game. Now the game just ended 5 or 10 minutes ago and lasted a goood hour, hour an a half, and its still verifying!! i dont know what to do... HELP!
Did you check the security software settings? iTunes has to be able to contact Apple during the update process: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues

HT4623 my iphone update fail, and restore error code 4005, please tell me what should I do?
update ios7 fail,reminder saying need to restore, but fail also, error code is 4005.
If you have a phone with no Facetime, it can't ever be added. As you note, it is outlawed in several mideast countries. If you bought it in one of those, it is not an option for you.

After using TM My flash drive doesn't work on windows ! what should i do?
Hi everyone !
i Bought My Macbook Pro 2 Days Ago And This Is The First Time That I'm Using A Mac.
today i tried to make a backup of my Mac Os and i thought maybe i could use my flash drive , so i connected it and i opened the TM and it asked me that it should erase my flash drive so it can back up the files on it , but after doing all that stuff i found out that my flash's capacity is not enough for a complete backup, but now i cant use it like i used to, and it doesn't show up on my windows ... now how can i make it work normal ?!it doesn't show up on my windows ...
If you mean 'wndows computer'... You will need to go to your Applications/Utilities folder and run 'Disk Utility'.
Plug in the flash drive, locate it on the left and click on the name to select it.
Then erase/format it using MS-DOS. When done, close Disk Utility and eject the flash drive.
Check it for proper operation on a Windows machine.
You can also erase/format it on a Windows machine or in a digital camera, as an example.
You can also format it for Mac OS, but I recommend keeping it Windows format for compatibility.
Good luck in any case.
